Giannis Antetokounmpo

Nigeria born Milwaukee Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo tossed a ladder to the ground when Wells Fargo Center employees didn't allow him to shoot free throws following Friday night's loss to Joel Embiid and company.

Antetokounmpo, 27, went 4-for-15 from the free throw line in Milwaukee's 102-110 loss to Philadelphia.

After the game he wanted to practice his free throws, but a few of the arena's employees were not letting him do so, which brought out the worst in Antetokounmpo.

He pushed the ladder to the ground before carrying on with his shots from the charity stripe.

Montrezl Harrell did not appreciate Antetokounmpo's act of frustration, yelling at him after the ladder hit the floor, and also stealing his basketball to keep him from shooting.

In the video, fans can be heard expressing their shock at how Antetokounmpo handled the situation, a sentiment echoed by Kendrick Perkins.

"Giannis full of sh-t for this," Perkins wrote. "Real Talk."

Antetokounmpo finished the night with 25 points on 10-for-22 shooting from the field to go with 14 rebounds.

His frustration will likely be taken out Monday against the Portland Trail Blazers.
